According to several reports, the Utah Jazz have signed Taevion Kinsey to a 10-day contract. Kinsey had an impressive offensive performance for the Salt Lake City Stars and this gives the Jazz a chance to get a better look at him.
The Utah Jazz are signing guard Taevion Kinsey to a 10-day contract with their NBA G League affiliate, the Salt Lake City Stars, his agent Scott Nichols said. @TheAthletic @Stadium. Kinsey averaged 14.8 points in the Stars’ last 10 games and shot 46.8% from 3 for the season.

The Jazz have had a lot of success recently with these types of signings. Probably the most memorable was when they signed Kris Dunn to a 10-day contract and he eventually got a full contract. Now, Dunn has most likely been a part of the Jazz for a long time, not only for his play, but also for his character and leadership. If Kinsey can do much of what he does in the G-League for the Jazz, this could be another diamond in the rough for Utah.
Congratulations to Taevion Kinsey on landing a 10-day contract with the Utah Jazz! ⭐️
This season, Kinsey averaged 10.2 points on 55.8 percent from the field and 46.8 percent from beyond the arc, along with 3.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists.#ItStartHere pic.twitter.com/1tXDCjuTWE

With so many changes right now for the Jazz, and likely being lower in the rankings for longer, we’ll likely see a lot more signings like this each season.
